Chapter 76 The Road to Sanctification
Han Fei shook his head, "The Legalists are too focused on politics, not a pure school of practice, so it is difficult to produce a new saint. If outsiders know that the two young men are talking about becoming saints, they may laugh out loud."
Yang Zheng thought, "I don't quite understand. Can you become a saint immediately by creating a new school, or can you reach the twelfth level first and then create a saint?"
Seeing that he was very interested in this matter, Han Fei explained: "Specifically, when you open up an unprecedented new path, you can breed new path seeds in your dantian, which is the foundation of sanctification."
After the new Taoist seed germinates in the dantian, it is constantly irrigated by the new Taoist will and gradually grow into a second Taoist tree. If you start a sect again, it means you have separated from the old foundation and take the new Taoist tree as the basis.
"But, having a new Taoist tree alone is far from enough to become a saint, because you are the only one who comprehended this Tao, how can this be considered a sect? You have to recruit disciples and spread the new Taoist seeds created on the Taoist tree, so that the new Taoist can spread."
In theory, everyone can establish a sect. As long as you choose a mountain or a name, you can regard yourself as a master. This is like cooking. Everyone else puts salt, but you insist on mixing sand. This is definitely a new cooking method.
But the question is, which sect must not have many disciples to be recognized by the world? Which new dish must not be delicious and can be imitated?
"When you pass on the new Taoist Dharma to the world and are widely recognized, the new school will be truly established. You will be respected as the Grand Master. The scale of disciples will expand rapidly and your luck will accumulate, and you will have the opportunity to become a saint!"
Yang Zheng was extremely smart and quickly heard the key, "In other words, the key to becoming a saint is to sow seeds wildly and let peaches and plums all over the world, so that he can reap enough luck, right?"
He finally understood why Xun Sheng lived in the Jixia Academy with his Taoist conduct and was willing to be worshipped by the Qi royal family. It turned out that Xun Sheng used the aid of the Academy to sow seeds and continue to accumulate luck.
Han Fei said: "That's right. So, anyone can give birth to new inspirations, but only by scattering branches and leaves and long-standing origins, that is, becoming a saint, can this world be changed."
Even if he can integrate magic power and become a new genre, if he is not widely accepted and cannot become a saint, what's the use of being a bare commander?
At this point, Yang Zheng finally figured out the complex relationship between Taoist seeds, Taoist trees and the masters and saints.
The reason why Zou Yan, Wei Wuji and others were able to become masters shows that they created a new school of cultivation, but their influence was not great enough to become saints. Xunzi reformed on the original framework of Confucianism and blossomed through trees, so he successfully became saints.
Yang Zheng said in a deep voice: "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Senior brother should have lofty ambitions. Why not allow a saint to become a saint? I think that it is not a matter of success for Xun Sheng to open up a new path!"
He comes from the future and of course he is optimistic about Han Fei.
Han Fei refused to comment and smiled warmly, "You care so much about the saints, you should want to have a deeper understanding of Xun Sheng, right?"
Yang Zheng said: "I hope I can get a disciple smoothly. For some reason, I always have a bad premonition, and I feel that something will happen..."
Just after saying this, Li Shu ran in from outside the door and reported: "Master, a guest is visiting and is waiting in the study."
After saying that, he looked at Han Fei, saluted respectfully, and praised: "You are Mr. Han Fei, right? Mouse has long admired your name. When I saw him today, the master is indeed handsome. He is really a dragon and phoenix among people!"
Wear it thousands of times, but flatter you don’t wear it.
Li Si and Han Fei finally met.
Han Fei smiled perfunctorily at him, stood up and said to Yang Zheng, "Since my junior brother has a guest, I won't disturb you anymore and come to visit you again next day."
Seeing this, Yang Zheng hurriedly said, "Senior Brother, the restaurant is so noisy, so what is the place suitable for cultivation? My house is quite spacious, you must stay here for a few days, and I have to ask you for advice!"
Without waiting for Han Fei to reply, he immediately ordered Li Shu, "You go to Tingfenglou now and bring all the young master's luggage here."
Li Shu understood it and left with decisiveness.
Han Fei felt a little embarrassed, "Isn't this good?"
"What's wrong with this?" Yang Zheng did not treat him as an outsider and stood up and said, "Tian'er, stay here to accompany your senior brother, I'll go see the guests first."
After saying that, he quickly walked towards the study.
"Apart from Han Fei, I have no old friends in Linzi City. Who will visit me?"
He was suspicious in his heart, and pushed open the door. What caught his eye was a middle-aged man. He was dressed in luxurious clothes, had a fair and fat face, had a mustache, and a simple and charming smile.
He bowed to Yang Zheng, his voice soft and even a little sissy. "I am the owner of Genting Gambling House. I will come to visit you tonight and ask Mr. Yang to forgive me."
Yang Zheng returned the greeting and glanced at the white jade ring on Lou He's hand and asked the other party to sit down, "Lou Gong is here to visit the humble house, I wonder what you can do?"
He could not have known that Lou He was a wealthy businessman in the capital, and he operated more than ten gambling shops, but his true identity was the leader of a farmer and lurked in the city for many years.
Lou He looked at Yang Zheng and said with a smile: "Heroes are young, the young master was famous in the capital yesterday, and everyone in the government and the country knew about it. When I saw it tonight, I was indeed handsome and handsome. I am really a dragon and phoenix among people!"
Yang Zheng smiled perfunctorily, and the embarrassing cancer was almost incurred.
It seems that like Li Shu, this person is also a cunning person with sweet mouths and a stubborn sword, and should not be underestimated.
"I came to visit the young master to give you a fortune."
"Oh? What wealth?"
Yang Zheng thought to himself that businessmen cannot get up early without profit, so Lou He took the initiative to come to him, probably because he wanted to make some deals with him.
Lou He sat upright and replied: "Yesterday afternoon, the young master defeated all the Confucian talents. Now everyone knows that you will participate in the winter examination of the academy and be the biggest favorite of the leader, no doubt about it."
Yang Zheng listened silently, without interruption.
"According to the rules of the Academy over the years, choices are mutual. Before the winter examination begins, each candidate first writes down the three schools he likes and seals them up. This is the wish of the candidate."
"After the winter examination is over, each company begins to announce its recruitment intentions. If it can reach an agreement with the candidate's wishes, it will be successfully admitted. If it is inconsistent, the candidate will be eliminated, but the top three have the right to choose."
Yang Zheng remained silent, but there were millions of grass and mud horses galloping in his heart.
This is clearly the application application for the college entrance examination, but it actually appeared in the winter examination of the academy! Moreover, this rule is even more stringent. Even if the candidates' winter examination results are among the best, as long as both parties do not match their wishes, they will still be eliminated.
For example, Xiao Ming is ranked fifth, Mingming is very outstanding, and his application is Confucianism, Yin-Yang School and Taoism.
However, all three families expressed their lack of interest in him, so it was a pity that even if all the remaining genres wanted him, he still ended up losing the election.
The Academy is better than having nothing but being too bad. It never forcefully accepts people, but only recruits heroes who are in love with each other. Therefore, over the years, countless outstanding talents like Xiao Ming who have filled in the wrong choices have been blocked from the gate of the Academy.
The difficulty of entering the academy is evident.
However, for extremely outstanding geniuses, such as the top three, the Academy is happy to open its doors and allow them to temporarily modify their volunteers, that is, let various schools compete for solicitation.
Whoever has a better attitude and can more impress the top three, they can choose who they can.
